As usual my journey has taken another jink to the side in a direction I was aware of but not really wanting to go.  Fortunately the good of the situation jumped up at me and reminded me that unplanned trips can create some of the best adventures and memories. 

So, the next time life bumps you off the path you were planning on look around.  Perhaps there is a reason.  Perhaps there is good you just haven't seen yet.  So before you start cussing and lamenting your fate, be mindful (Yes, Buddhist saying can have relevance.) of what you affect and what effects are caused by this change.  You may just be surprised.
